EPA Grants $230K to Two Cities in Mexico for Environmental Projects

The EPA awarded $461,368 in grants this week for various environmental projects along the U.S.-Mexico border. About half of the funds went to projects in Calexico, CA and Phoenix, AZ, but the remaining $230,000 went to two cities on the Mexican side of the border, Nogales and Ensenada. The funding came under a partnership with the Border Environment Cooperation Commission, part of the bi-national U.S.-Mexico Environmental Program: Border 2020.
